Book 4: Chapter 21: Immortal Mansion's Original Owner
The door of the hall opened, and the light from outside the hall shone in, making the black-robed man feel a little uncomfortable.
He recovered from the confusion and saw the figure standing at the door of the temple, and then he couldn’t help dancing in ecstasy.
It’s not easy, I waited for you for so long, and finally, you are willing to come in and face me!
Desperately suppressing his emotions, the black-robed man feared that his violent consciousness fluctuations would be noticed by the man in front of him.
Bai Qiuran stood at the door, seeming to be watching him. The black-robed man tried his best to suppress the fluctuations in the consciousness of his soul and tried to disguise himself as a corpse.
After watching for a while, Bai Qiuran turned his head, as if to exhort the people outside the door, and then closed the hall door with his backhand.
Great, it seems he didn’t notice…
The black-robed man was secretly happy, waiting quietly for the opportunity.
Bai Qiuran didn’t seem to be vigilant. While looking around the situation in the hall, he approached the throne where the black-robed man was sitting on.
Ten meters… five meters… three meters…
Even though this decayed body had no lungs to breathe, the black-robed man still felt that he was holding his breath nervously.
Finally, Bai Qiuran came to a place less than one meter in front of him and slowly stretched out his palm to his body.
Now!
The black robe man yelled in his heart and activated the possession spell that he had prepared and practiced for thousands of years.
His soul escaped from the decayed body and turned into a faintly invisible blue light, flying towards the middle of Bai Qiuran’s eyebrows. Suddenly, Bai Qiuran’s palm appeared on his route, holding a black prism – that is what Land Immortals used to store their souls, but it also had the effect of forcefully absorbing the souls of Land Immortals.
After being touched by that thing, his soul would be forcibly sucked into it. After that, unless Bai Qiuran inserted the prism into a living body, he would never see the sun again in this life.
But you are not the only one who is prepared!
The black-robed man sneered, and then on the way to charge, his soul was actually divided into two. The small part was a useless soul fragment that he abandoned. It was instantly sucked into the black prism in Bai Qiuran’s hand. A large portion of his soul went around behind Bai Qiuran and slammed into the nape of his neck.
In the blink of an eye, Bai Qiuran’s other hand suddenly raised again, blocking the nape of his neck with another black prism.
How many Land Immortals did this guy kill?
These resident soul crystals were obviously taken from the hands of the Land Immortals, but the black-robed man did not see Bai Qiuran retrieve any resident soul crystals from the Land Immortals who he had killed.
Either he had already killed several Land Immortals before entering the Wise Immortal Mansion, or he had obtained it while the black robe man was unprepared.
But now with two resident soul crystals in hand, the soul of the black-robed man could no longer reach Bai Qiuran’s spiritual platform.
From the knowledge and experience of a Land Immortal, he could naturally see that Bai Qiuran’s martial art skill has already reached the highest level. Not to mention the current era, even in the heyday of the Sacred Dynasty, there were very few that could compare to him.
For the black-robed man, the Soul Crystal in his palms has become a high wall that would kill him instantly when touched.
Even though there was still a ray of hope, the black-robed man who’s afraid of death would not dare to gamble. If he didn’t value his own life so much, he might not survive till now.
The black-robed man’s soul circulated in mid-air at great speed, like a comet with the long light tail, and rushed towards the rotten body that collapsed on the throne, Bai Qiuran raised his hand and threw the black prism flew out and hit the black-robed man’s soul in the middle of trajectory, but the black-robed man decisively split his soul into two parts again. The Seven Spirits were hit by the black prism and sucked into it, while the Three Souls got into the body of the black-robed man, and manipulated the decayed body to move again.
The black robe man used his last strength and pinched a magic seal with his withered arms.
There was a sudden mist in the hall, and space turned upside down, sucking the black robe man, Bai Qiuran, and everything in the hall into another space.
The mist gathered and dispersed, and the three souls of the black-robed man abandoned his body on the way and flew away, while Bai Qiuran and the body of the black-robed man who had been thrown by him appeared in the middle of a dark space.
A feeling of weightlessness came, Bai Qiuran lowered his head and looked down. There was vast darkness under his feet, and he couldn’t see where the ground was, or even if there was any ground.
He closed his eyes and sighed, then stabilized his body, and landed straight.
He has been falling for an unknown amount of time. After a while, Bai Qiuran felt his feet touch the ground, and then rumbling, causing a huge collapse.
In the darkness, he didn’t know how much damage was caused by the shock wave caused by his fall, and whether it hurt other things in this dark space. A moment after, the body of the black-robed man also landed, instantly shattered to pieces.
Bai Qiuran patted the non-existent dust on his body, checked the surrounding situation, and when he was about to leave, suddenly heard a slight voice in his ears.
“Little friend, little friend! Can you help me?”
Bai Qiuran was stunned for a moment and walked towards the place where the sound was made.
The direction the voice came from was exactly the body of the black-robed man next to Bai Qiuran. This body was a husk. The muscles and internal organs inside were long decayed, and the huge impact smashed the bones inside. It now looked like some kind of inferior toy which was broken.
Bai Qiuran stretched his feet and flipped it, then kicking this body aside, and then saw the one who was talking.
It was a human skull, but with a raging green soul fire was burning deep in the eye sockets. Bai Qiuran used his Soul Awareness to scan it, only to find that there was no soul inside it.
“You don’t need to scan me, I have no malice against you, little friend. Even if I want to possess someone, I don’t have that ability now.”
The skull said, a sense of self-deprecating in the words.
“Because of my stupidity and gullibility, my three souls and seven spirits have long been destroyed by people, and I only rely on the blessing of heaven to exist.”
“Then can you help me go out?”
Bai Qiuran asked.
“Of course, I’m this Immortal Mansion’s original owner!”
The words of the skull are full of confidence.
At this moment, there was a loud roar in the depths of darkness, and the sound wave became a huge wave, shaking the earth rumblingly.
Hearing this voice, the tone of the skull changed, and said urgently:
“No, he’s manipulating that corpse… Quickly, do as I said, I’ll teach you how to teleport in this space!”
“It’s too late!”
A muffled low voice sounded, and in the darkness, a giant fell from the sky and fell to Bai Qiuran and the skull.
